I have a week off from work. Hope to get a few
things done round the house. Been doing a bit of
cycling to and from work. Most of the buttons are
gone from my coat now, press-studs really
but I like the coat and I do cycle along a bleak
post apocalyptic streetscape and the breeze gets in
and through my knitwear the wind chill gets in
then there is a gate that a bicycle can barely
get through. Then I am pretty much in my village.
Dog one has been my dog now for twelve years
and she is closer to thirteen and I
got her on on classifieds site 'donedeal',
free to good home in 2013.
Imagine if I hadn't answered the ad. Our paths would
never have crossed.
She's half black labrador half collie.
I have spaniel too.
You tend to accumulate them.
Every dog brings something to the table.
They all have their strengths and weaknesses.
Spaniel is a real sniffer dog with
snoopy-like snout and floppy ears.
He is silent but is vocal in the car...
Trying to form words but it
comes out as a self-pitying whine.
So my break has finally begun and in the coming
days I hope to get a few things
done round the house and garden,
paint the fence black and replace wallpaper in
the front room. I want to get it over more to
the monochromatic palette and more coherent..
Maybe I'm starting to get it together.
